I took a 2 month break. It killed 5 years of momentum.
DONT STOP.
>>122501449
just drop it and start a new project. You have obviously lost all motivation for that game, no reason to let it suffer like an injured dog. Just close the window, delete the project, and start a new. Just do this a lot, and don't ever stop devving, eventually you'll finish a gamesurely.

There's nothing to get used to here if you're not going to get any reply when you post progress. That was supposed to be the whole point of an amateur game development general.
I'm just going to get a list of all the real devs and follow them in their own website or tumblr.

Listen bud, everyone here can tell your a millennial. Just because you post progress doesnt guarantee replies. While your progress may mean a lot to YOU, you have to also remember that most people will not see it as that important. In all likely hood, your progress isn't even what most people here consider to be 'progress'. Getting up in the morning and opening an IDE isnt progress. You have to make it interesting for people, or they are not going to reply. The reason people reply to the shitposters is because usually the stuff they most is outlandish and dramatic, which is interesting to humans, just look at things like tabloids. You have to bring something to the table with your shit, or people simply wont care. Go ahead and post your progress. Having a webm helps, cause people like to see stuff in action. But posting a picture of some enemy design you made or some new art work that looks like shite probably isn't going to get you very far. Think with your head man. Ask yourself, what do the people, the consumer of my media, want to see? And try to deliver that. You don't have to change your game concept to fit popular opinion, but you gotta make it something that the average person here will care enough about to take the time out of THEIR day to reply to it. No one is entitled to replies.

Could anyone briefly say if an idea I had is good or bad? I'm actually serious about it -- I've been learning C++ for this reason.
It's essentially: you're born in 10000 BCE, you're visited by the last human alive who is suffering from the end of the Universe (entropy), and he gives you a pill that makes you immune to aging (not violence or other death).
You then can either influence humanity from the shadows, assuming fake identities every lifetime, or you can become a world leader and dictator. If you become famous but don't "die" normally, a leader would get suspicious and you'd be on the operating table.
You can influence:
--religion
--government
--technology
--science and medicine
--culture and the arts
--weaponry and war
once per 5 years. You could max out religion in the early BCs and be a prophet and later use that power to enact a second coming, or you could invent things early on and set humanity forward.
The thing is that there are certain "milestone conditions" -- you can't get funds for your entropy research if you're not skilled in physics and at least a little influential in government.
The win condition is you have to have a sustainable amount of entropy production that will last humans a trillion years.
Heavily based on The Final Question. It'd be in the rough style of Plague, Inc.

I know trolling can be hard sometimes, but try to keep up.
>>122507051
Nignog, this is a story and not a game idea.
To make it a game idea you have to define terms you use, such as:
>assuming fake identities, become this that
how do you do that? type "become chinese warlord"?
>max out religion
is it a stat? what actions cause it to change, what other stats are there
>die
how do things that cause your death happen, random encounters while you're managing your stats?
>It'd be in the rough style of Plague, Inc.
Oh ok, I wasted my time, thanks - all you've got is a skin/theme for another game. gg.

>>122507051
srs ansr
It sounds nice for a simulation game, but you might want to break it down some more. Like, what is Entropy? How do I get it? What's the limit? Can I increase that limit? What can I use it on?
What are the consequences of doing X as opposed to Y? Can I advance this world beyond what was established in the real world? Can I introduce science in an era where science was considered witchcraft? Can I prevent the discovery of something that changes the world?
Will the world continue to move when I'm "dead"? How will the world continue? Will it be based on RNG, my influences, or something scripted? How will the world evolve if I do nothing?
Can I affect the entire world or just this one region? Can other regions oppose me or follow me? Can I go against myself in another life (assuming another identity years later)?
If you don't break it down into what-ifs, you'll be chasing a concept that may be far beyond your reach. You might want to bounce your ideas off writers and not developers, however.

I'm a beginner to coding and I heard I should start with Python, because it's easier to learn. But it seems there aren't many games, or famous software that use it, so i'm not really sure if I should dedicate my time to learn a language I won't use
I wanted to learn C++ but that definitely isn't for begginers
Time to dev, eh?
>>122510292
Tbqh there isn't really any beginner languages there are just different paradigms and levels of abstraction and different kinds suit different people or projects best.but c++ is pretty shit imo

I know you think you're false flagging and trolling us all and all that but what you're really doing is making a case for getting yourself committed to a mental health institute. I'm not entirely joking. People who "troll" to this extent on the internet are usually verified as being sick in the head and dangerous to society. Maybe you should stop. But you won't. It's been months though, bro. Literally months of nonstop insane behavior towards strangers on the internet. That's not trolling, it's disturbing. Take care.

By that I mean dedicated day in day out harassment, breaking terms of use for websites by dodging bans etc. Just think it over.

It's not so bad, you just have to be sharp. No facebook if you're going to put your real name out there, make sure you're not listed on whitepages or other listing sites, if you're going to have a youtube clean up your google+ settings so people can't view your posts, friends in your circles, things like that. Never photograph your face or your home or property nearby you and if you do do not post it on 4chan unless you're absolutely sure you know what you're doing. Don't befriend or be social with family members on your youtube either, don't let them comment on your stuff for example. You have to be your own separate entity.

I just had an idea. What if, instead of picking a rotation + position you want the weapon to try to reach manually by dragging the gizmos around,you only get to select from a handful of cards which you draw.
I.e. "1 unit back", "rotate 45 degrees on y axis", e.t.c.

>>122518836

>>122518736
It's too late. I'm already being stalked by people from this thread. I can't shake them. They even follow me to other boards!
>>122518964
With a big enough hand size, you could probably keep it reasonably fair.
Or you could even make it a deck-building kinda game, where part of the skill is in arranging your deck so that no matter how it's shuffled, you always have reasonable options. Kinda like playing Magic or Pokemon TCG or w/e
>>122518964
RNG will affect the final outcome somewhat, but if you plan different sequences of cards depending on what your opponent does, and take calculated risks which will require a certain card to be drawn, the better player will win the majority of the time.

it's actually not random at all and the key problem of quantum mechanics is that you cannot measure things at the smallest scales because to measure them is to interact with the system, which is to change the system, which is to absolutely ruin any notion of knowing what the fuck was going on before you came by kicking all the particles around like you're a big man
it's a metaphysical problem rather than one of "normal" physics
a good analogy from heisenberg's "Physics and Philosophy" is that it's like taking a ruler to something; to measure an object with a ruler, you are likely to touch the object. the ruler has been effectively added to the object. we just don't care at that sort of human-appreciable scale because the ruler doesn't have that much of an effect on the object being measured. but it would be dishonest to say you haven't moved the object slightly, that the weak forces of the ruler and the object aren't interacting, etc. for example, if you press a ruler to a page, you'll bend or scrape the page a bit. it's not a big enough change to care about, but it is large enough to be appreciable
however, in quantum physics, to measure the position or speed or whatever of the smallest particles/measures of energy, you can't get that information except by changing the system and recording subsequent changes. quantum physics is entirely deterministic, it's just that you can't figure out a lot of information of what was going on before you started fucking around with lasers and shit tryna act like you know what's hood

Sup AGDG, I starting making blind playthroughs of AGDG Demo Day 5 games.
They're TERRIBLE, but I imagine at least the devs might find them useful:

And there were smatterings of famposters in /v/ and /tv/ before then too, because it's older than that, but it definitely caught in large during summer

It used to be the dank gutter of maymays but it's those very newfags that diluted the culture.
>>122524721
>is this a meme
yeah
just like Source, it's just to get a rise out of you
just report it to your federal police when you see it
>>122524921
Yeah, but so many people don't know that term / understand it wrong, to the point of near uselessness. I do appreciate you bringing that up though.
>>122525104
Y-you appreciate me, Anon?
>>122523272
you're not supposed to learn where to stick sample code, you're supposed to understand the concept behind it and the procedural flow of it, git gut shitter

This is true. If you have a time-stopped box located some meters above planet earth, with a mass in it, then you know without any question what will happen to that mass when you un-timestop.
So it goes with every other imaginable construct.

lol what
Bully me like one of your french girls, /agdg/.
>>122521338
Possibly, what's your info?
>>122526351
should just be a single repeating set of a couple slats and the details can be overlays
suboptimal/10
>>122526351
Too noisy.
The flat color "damage" clashes with your noisy tiles.
Too repetitive.
>>316865152
>this game looks sick as hell faggot go cry about your failed 2D anime girl darksouls inspired binding of isaac clone back in agdg

i was gonna make a spelunky clone in unity after not having deved for a while but then i got to the part where i have to make a level generator and just no senpai that's too much work i don't even know where to start
>>122526541
what game is that meant to be? marmoreal?
>>122526351
Looks like the worst thing I've ever seen. Way too noisy and too repetitive.
>>122526757
You're in luck
http://tinysubversions.com/spelunkyGen/
>>122526757
Do like Spelunky does: Slap hand-made chunks together to craft the levels. Everything will flow better and feel more intentional, while still being fresh between playthroughs.
You can either have pieces that will always fit together (harder in that you have to acertain that by hand)
OR
Have pieces and then punch holes connecting them when you "generate" the map (slightly harder to code).
>>122526457
The detail is a layer actually.
>>122526493
>>122526826
All right, thanks for the feedback.
>>122527059
>The detail is a layer actually.
you have no idea what you're doing
make a smaller looping texture
then, make a transparent "damaged area" overlay
then, instead of a fucking 44kb image, you can have a 64x64 looping tile and four 32x32 overlays instead of a fucking 1024x576 image
this is literally worse than that guy whose song was too short for the intended playtime of his halloween jam game so instead of looping it in the game he manually lengthened it from 2 minutes to 15
>>122527243
> instead of a fucking 1024x576 image
I think he made the image to display how his tiling is working, man.
>>122527243
oh no
44kb
how horrifying
less than 1/20th of a megabyte
just give up now
>>122527332
I disagree
>>122527059
Here's something that might help you
>>122527398
Nice looking, but the rightmost ones are getting too noisy...
>>122527394
today it's 44kb, tomorrow it's makeing a 4mb MP3 into a 300mb flac, the day after it's loading 60gb of shit into memory for a 2d pixel platformer
when does it end, man
>>122527521
then all he has to do is stop before the rightmost ones
>>122527529
next we'll be marrying dogs

mgi dev is already making $3048 a year from his game. its been a few days since he put the patreon up
:^)
>>122529632
and they say that indie dev isn't about titties and waifus
>>122529540

They are making you a favor honestly.
>>122529632
>>122529747
Ahaha, cute.
>>122529747
Why do people keep pretending anyone said that.
Everyone has always known tits are the easy answer, not everyone wants to do that though.
>>122529632

because it's what you guys told me until monster girl island and that anubis game cropped up

What?
Is there any way to accurately skew an image so that it fits on any angle of an isometric cube? Making perfect circles is a total bitch from this angle.
>>122530240
>skew
>circle
anon, I
>>122530240
Hard to tell what you're even trying to do. Perhaps a picture would help (assuming some Anon can't decipher your shit from experience alone).
>>122530240
yeah. the skew tool in paint.
also dont they teach you how to do image transforms with a ruler in school anymore? I had to do that in my grade 8 math class

In all seriousness though, I do see some similarity.
I like it. Good work.
>>122524508
Could you critique proxy hack?
>>122531012
Sure thing, I'll do that next. Though my videos are more of blind runs + super shallow analysis than critiques.
Or, I mean, I can do a NON blind run if you want.
>>122531116
>playing video games
Begone, nodev scum
>>122530361
This is what I'm referring to. I normally wouldn't stress such an issue, but it's a pretty basic shape that I want to incorporate into my art.
>>122530367
I can do it easily enough in real life, but I have a much harder time doing so on the computer since I have to use pixels and don't have a tool that functions as a compass.
>>122531116
A blind run would be more helpful to see which areas arent intuitive
Where do you start on a project agdg? Once you've got an idea, your platformer or your little physics game or your 2deep life sim, where do you go from there? How do you start building your game?
>>122531421
Somewhere in the middle, typically
>>122531421
Make a prototype to see if it has potential
>>122531195
I actually got quite a lot of dev done yesterday/the day before while making the videos.
My shit connection means I have a good couple of hours of dev time per video to dev.
Dev on Vampire of the Sands done in that time:
* Added a stamina bar
* Changed tumble to be stamina based
* Changed tumble to be instant rather than have a wait (which was bumming players out)
* Changed treasure chets to consolidate stacked items of the same type to lower player keypresses needed
* Added auto-pickup (and relevant menu settings) for players who don't want to click all the time
* Made the dash when using a sword make you invinsible for a short period
* Fixed a slew of graphics bugs I created when fixing my multiple-resolution support

anon
uh
how is that game doing?
why do you insist on working on it?
no offense, but you know what they say about turds and polish.
>>122531267
Oh, that.
If you jump directly into OpenGL you can just draw it in 3D onto the surface of the cube.
Either that or you can just skew it in Photoshop using the skew tool and save the product in 2D.
>>122531629
Nice false progress, saboteur, but I am raise to your tricks!
>>122531737
>but you know what they say about turds and polish.
Polish people clean turds from the toilet?
>>122531737
People who have played the game enjoyed it, so I don't really know what to say.
Not everyone finds lol-so-retro pixel shit art unforging, if that's what your hang up is (I have no clue since you didn't say!)
That said, the process is fun and I don't need money.
>>122531859
I know you're just fun posting but there's proof in my released game. I push the updates every month. One can easily verify via playing http://homph.com/vots/Changelog.txt
